I’ve got 2 days left to finish this facial recognition app. Almost there!

Still having some issues with the actual recognizing of faces thing though

I saved up quite a while for this laptop and brown bagged a lot of lunches to buy this and I even had to wait an extra week from the “expected arrival date” after I bought it. Imagine my dismay when I attempted to open my laptop, like I’ve done before on many occasions, only to hear it crack and snap. These ThinkPads had been advertised as being “tough” and “robust” but the left hinge of my laptop, which has never left the confines of my desk since I bought it, has simply broken off from its apparently flimsy connection to the LCD and keyboard.

I googled around and found that I was not the only one to experience the left hinge breaking. It looks like it has been happening quite consistently among other Lenovo ThinkPad users. On the Lenovo forum, I saw that at least two SL400′s have had their hinges break in the last few months. Two more SL500′s have also been reported to have had the same issue as well. There were at least 8 people who bothered to report the issues on the website and three of them as well as myself have had their hinges break in the last two months.

I sincerely hope that Lenovo will do whats right and provide proper compensation or replace these broken laptops.

That’s right, there’s going to be NPCs with some limited AI! Haven’t quite figured out how to identify them as NPCs though.

Here’s a shot of some in-game combat. Probably needs to be prettied up a bit more though.

I plan to go into alpha testing soon so stay tuned if you’ve managed to find this blog!

Hashing, if you’re interested, is a pain the ass to do. Especially if you want to limit the character count and still make it decipherable.

Welp. Started adding nebulae into the game.

Even Google thinks Jay Leno isn’t funny. Go retire you jerk. Leave CoCo alone!

I was just looking on NBC’s website and noticed that they had “Series Finale” up rather than “Season Finale.” I sure as hell hope that this is just a misprint.

Spoilers under the cut.

I’ve never seen anything on tv that felt that “real” until this week’s episode of Chuck. I almost welled up there, it was just one of those feel good moments. I really hope that Chuck and Sarah end up together on the show but there’s still one episode left in the season for them to mess it up.

Hopefully we get a season three, but not for them to mess up the Chuck and Sarah dynamic! We all know it’ll suck once they’re together but, hey, don’t we all want a happy ending?

Yep, this is the finale. Hopefully just for the season and not the series. I have to get back to working on my libtorrent extension. Damn.
